History and education only. Not legal advice. Many traditional methods in this guide (including deadfalls, snares, pit traps, spring poles, fish traps, weirs, nets, trotlines and spearing) are illegal today or require a license or permit, and rules differ by state, species and season. Always check your state fish and wildlife agency's current regulations and your local hunting, fishing and trapping laws before using any method. Outdoor skills, blades, firearms, black powder, cold water and ice carry real risks of injury or death.
